Russia, judgment of 10 June 2010, final on 22 November 2010—Communication pursuant to Rule 9.1 of the Rules of the Committee of Ministers for the supervision of the execution of judgments and of the terms of friendly settlements Dear Sir or Madam, As attorney of record, I am writing further to my letter dated 15 May 2017, which requested the Committee to change the monitoring of the above Jehovah’s Witnesses of Moscow v. Russia judgment to the “enhanced procedure”. The 20 April 2017 decision of the Supreme Court of Russia banning the Administrative Centre of Jehovah’s Witnesses and all 395 local religious organisations, including the Moscow LRO, is having a severe nationwide impact on Jehovah’s Witnesses. The attached interim report (Annex 1) details more than 40 serious and harsh incidents in the Moscow region and throughout Russia and includes the following: • On 25 May 2017, the Federal Security Service (FSB) raided a religious service of Jehovah’s Witnesses in the city of Orel and searched the homes of Jehovah’s Witnesses. The FSB justified their raid by citing the ban on Jehovah’s Witnesses and stated a criminal investigation had been opened against Jehovah’s Witnesses in Orel under Article 282.2, part 1, of the Criminal Code for “extremism”. The FSB took into custody Danish citizen Dennis Christensen. On 26 May 2017, the Sovietskiy District Court of Orel granted the motion of the FSB and ordered Mr Christensen jailed in pretrial detention for two months pending completion of the criminal investigation. If convicted, Mr. Christensen faces possible imprisonment for 6 to 10 years based on the 2016 amendments to Article 282.2, which now provide for harsher punishment. (Annexes 2 and 3) The facts of Mr. Christensen’s case mirror the criminal conviction of 16 of Jehovah’s Witnesses in Taganrog under Article 282.2 of the Criminal Code (see pending application Trotsyuk and Others v. Russia, no. 24622/16). Lawyers GEORGETOWN (ONTARIO) SAINT-BRUNO-DE-MONTARVILLE (QUÉBEC) ALMATY (KAZAKHSTAN) Department for the Execution of Judgments of the ECHR 2 30 May 2017 • Over the past six weeks, law enforcement officials have issued at least 14 warnings to LROs and congregations of Jehovah’s Witnesses threatening criminal prosecution if Jehovah’s Witnesses continue to hold their religious services (see examples of warnings at Annex 4). Over the same period of time, there have been at least 18 police raids on peaceful religious services of Jehovah’s Witnesses. On 12 April 2017, masked and heavily armed police, accompanied by journalists, stopped a religious service of Jehovah’s Witnesses in Chelyabinsk, claiming it is now illegal for the Witnesses to meet for worship. The media report on the raid can be viewed at https://youtu.be/pPj-VnT2pIw. • On 15 May 2017, management of a chemical factory in Dorogobuzh, Smolensk Region, told their employees who are Jehovah’s Witnesses that they had received orders from the FSB to dismiss all Jehovah’s Witnesses. The management told the Witnesses to resign, or they would be fired. • On 17 April 2017, in the village of Bolshekrepinskaya, Rostov Region, one of Jehovah’s Witnesses was summoned by the school principal where her 14-year-old daughter attends. The principal and other teachers insulted the Witness mother by stating that she takes her daughter to meetings of a “terrorist organisation”. Two days later the principal and two police officers met privately with the 14-year-old girl at school and told her that her mother is a member of a “terrorist organisation” in which members are “taught to kill people and steal from them”. • On 24 May 2017, in Zheshart, Komi Republic, a building used by Jehovah’s Witnesses for religious services was destroyed by arson. The remains of a Molotov cocktail were found at the scene. On 30 April 2017, in Lutsino, Moscow Region, an arson attack burned to the ground a home of a Witness family. • On 28 April 2017, the Conscription Commission of the Cheboksary and Marposadskiy regions rejected the application for alternative service of one of Jehovah’s Witnesses. The Commission stated that Jehovah’s Witnesses are “extremist” and cannot be granted alternative service. The Commission threatened to turn the case over to the FSB for investigation. As stated in my 15 May 2017 letter, the Russian authorities have totally disregarded the judgement rendered by the European Court of Human Rights in this application and embarked on a nation-wide campaign of repression and persecution of Jehovah’s Witnesses. For these reasons, we respectfully ask that the Committee please change the monitoring of the above Jehovah’s Witnesses of Moscow v. Russia judgment to the “enhanced procedure” and consider starting infringement proceedings against Russia under Rule 11 of the Rules of the Committee of Ministers. Please accept an expression of our appreciation for your consideration of the above. Yours truly, W.

Yeltsin, Yekaterinburg, Russia 2Department of Finance, Money Circulation and Credit, Ural State University of Economics, Yekaterinburg, Russia *Corresponding author. Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT The article attempts to analyze the impact of regional differences in income and activity of using digital financial services (DFS) on the financial literacy of the population. The authors proceeded from the hypothesis that the effect of concentration of financial activity in large federal centers of the Russian Federation on other territories, in particular, the Sverdlovsk region, is approximated. The main research hypothesis is that the regular and active use of digital financial services is more inherent with people living in large settlements and having a relatively higher income; these two factors have a decisive influence on the level of financial literacy. The use of constantly developing digital financial services in everyday life allows people to visualize the dynamics of their financial capabilities, analyze and adjust the structure of financial resources, which increases financial knowledge and strengthens

    E3S Web of Conferences 295, 01013 (2021) https://doi.org/10.1051/e3sconf/202129501013 WFSDI 2021 Regional Features of the Financial Literacy the Population of the Sverdlovsk Region Elena Razumovskaia1,2,*, Denis Razumovskiy1,3, Elena Ovsyannikova1 1Ural State Economics University, 620144 Yekaterinburg, Russia 2Ural Federal University, 620002 Yekaterinburg, Russia 3Russian Academy of National Economy and Public Administration under the President of the Russian Federation (UIU RANEPA), 620144 Yekaterinburg, Russia Abstract. The presented research is devoted to analysis of the principles and optimality criteria for the structure of household financial resources, formed on the basis of surveys of a sample of 5,842 respondents from the Sverdlovsk region based on the author’s methodology for assessing the level of financial literacy and the structure of citizens expenses. The initial hypothesis about the influence of the level of financial literacy of the population on the structure of household spending has been verified. Examples of author questionnaires are presented, developed taking into account the methodological support of the Central Bank of the Russian Federation and the NAFR Analytical Centre. The conclusion is substantiated that more financially literate people are inclined to plan income and expenses and are able to evaluate the structure of their expenses from the position of optimality. The study is supplemented by an analysis of an array of statistical information on indicators of the financial situation of the population of the cities of the Sverdlovsk region. The purpose of the study is to verify the relationship between the level of financial literacy of the population of the Sverdlovsk region and the structure of household spending based on a subjective assessment of optimality by respondents.
